Download Hamachi for Windows 2.1.0.294, Mac 2.1.0.454, Linux 2.1.0.84

LogMeIn has released new versions of Hamachi. With this program you can set up your own VPN. The program installs a virtual network card which makes it possible to set up a ‘direct’ connection between different computers without being hindered by any router, gateway or firewall. Files can then be exchanged and multiplayer games can be played via this connection. Hamachi is available for Windows, OS X and Linux, where the version numbers do not match and the Linux version is still released under the beta flag. In addition to the free version, there is also a pro version, which has access to various extra options. The changelog for this release looks like this:

Enhancements

• Hamachi log file improvement
  The Hamachi crash log file now contains the version information of the Mac client.
• Client improvements
  On the Hamachi client, .local has been added to the ping [client ID] and copy [client ID] context menu options of Hamachi peers. For example, ping 123-456-789 has been changed to ping 123-456-789.local in the context menu. This change has no effect on functionality.
• Hamachi interface on Windows
  In IPv6-only mode, the Network Location Awareness service on Windows clients did not qualify the Hamachi interface as a public interface. As a result, it is now possible to set up Hamachi as a Work or Home network which is less restrictive than public networks. This, in turn, causes less issues with firewall settings.

Fixes

• Command line clients trim address
  The command line version of the Hamachi client trimmed the IP address of peers. This error effected Mac and Linux clients.
• Notification window on Mac clients
  It was not possible to click left in the notification window on Mac clients.
• Notification window on Windows clients
  It was not possible to move the notification window on Windows clients.
• Menu bar icon missing in offline mode
  The envelope icon on the menu bar was not visible on Mac clients when there was a message for the client but the client was offline.
• Gateway did not check OS type on Windows
  The Hamachi client did not send information about the type of operating system that the client was running. The client only communicated whether it was running a 32 or 64-bit OS. As a result, this information was not displayed on the Networks > My Networks page of the LogMeIn website.
• “Cannot connect to engine” error
  In some cases, due to a communication error between the Hamachi GUI and the Hamachi engine, the client failed to start and displayed a Cannot connect to engine message. This issue affected Windows and Mac clients.
• Masked password field
  When you create a network on the Hamachi client, it was possible to see the entered characters in the password field. As of this release, the content of the password field is masked. This issue affected Windows and Mac clients.
